The Only Mahatma

If you are girl and reading this blog, better to thanks him first. Due to him only whole race of Indian women's  are able to get education, before him whatever religion and caste you are belongs you don’t have right to learn.

  

In 1848, an incident took place in his life that later sparked off the  revolution in the Indian society. Jyotirao was invited to attend a wedding of one of his Brahmin friends. Knowing that he belonged to inferior caste, the relatives of the bridegroom insulted and abused him. Jyotirao left the procession and made up his mind to defy the prevailing caste-system and social restrictions. He then started his campaign of serving the people of lower caste who were deprived of all their rights as human beings.

After reading Thomas Paine's famous book 'The Rights of Man' on French Revolution  Jyotirao was greatly influenced by his ideas. He believed that enlightenment of the women and lower caste people was the only solution to combat the social evils. Therefore, in 1848, he along with his wife Savitre bahi (what Saraswati never did she did) started a first school for the girls.
 
In 1851, Jyotiba established a girls' school and asked his wife to teach the girls in the school. Jyotirao, later, opened two more schools for the girls and an indigenous school for the lower castes.

The conventional Brahmins of the society were enraged at the activities of Jyotirao. They blamed him for violating the norms and regulations of the society.. But Jyotirao was firm and decided to continue the movement. Interestingly, Jyotirao had some Brahmin friends who extended their support to make the movement successful. In first school 4 girls are Brahmins out of nine students.
 

Phule had a favorable opinion about the British Rule in India at least from the point of view of introducing modern philosophy of justice and equality in Indian society and taking India into the future. His famous quote about the first freedom struggle of 1857, He said "Thank god, the British Govt won the war. This is a mutiny by Brahmin priests and bhikkus"

and I agree with this. 

His saying,

विद्येविना मती गेली | मतीविना नीति गेली | नीतीविना गती गेली | गतीविना वित्त गेले | वित्ताविना शुद्र खचले | इतके अनर्थ एका अविद्येने केले!

Lack of education leads to lack of wisdom, which leads to lack of morals, which leads to lack of progress, which leads to lack of money, which leads to the oppression of the lower classes. See what state of the society one lack of education can cause.

This blog is completely infirm to write & explain about Mahatma Fule .

The Great Indian JUGAAD

The Great Indian JUGAAD

Cabin of jugaad

Jugaad is a vehicle assembled by carpenters and low skilled people much like what the Flintstones did for their cars.  Sometimes, improvised in every feature, might combine a bus chassis with a tractor engine. But the basic form of the vehicle is a cart fitted out with a diesel pump used as an engine.  A big rod with a wheel at the end serves as the steering column. There are no gears and a basic break mechanism stops the wheel when needed.  The brakes fail more than they work requiring its passengers to jump off the moving vehicle to place stones or blocks in front of the wheels.  Since these vehicles operate in the rural parts of India there are no registration fee or insurance or emissions inspections.  There are thousands of Jugaad’s on rural roads of India and despite the issues of road worthiness; these vehicles reflect the true spirit of innovation in rural India”. Recently has become a touchstone of design thinking and a business buzzword applied to architecture, design or work. You hear people whispering this word at every corner, they are in my dictionary too !!

School Bus Jugaad

Kuch JUGAAD kar do? 

Bhai JUGAAD ho gaya ? Kaha se JUGAAD keya ?

 

Once I asked a Jugaad driver (shown in 1st photo) in Sukhtal interior of Uttar Pradesh that, “How he JUGAAD his jugaad”?

So the story is here !! He brought his jugaad from Haryana at forty five thousand as it is not banned there. His four friends carried it through rough terrains to avoid National Highways and Police chowkis.  They drove it for 600 km from Haryana to UP via Punjab and Delhi. They ran through jungles and canals. Still they pay total 15000 to foresst officers and rural police. Now it is a School Bus. You can see many variant of Jugaad like as an Ambulance, buses, truck variant and a hearse (A vehicle for carrying a coffin).

People's Vehicle

A Superhero Product

Everyone sees the world differently, but our worldviews vary in clumps. Some people are focused on today, some on tomorrow. Some people see an innovation as an opportunity, others see a risk. Some people want strength while others seek obedience. Some want facts, others prefer fables.

Smart marketers understand that these biases and expectations are shared across particular groups . When speaking to the market, you will always do better if your story resonates with the worldview of the collective you're trying to reach.

Consider three common superheros Superman,Batman  & Spiderman.

Batman, comes to the world angry. His origin story is filled with vengeance and revenge, and in his iconic backstory, he is the merciless enforcer of right and wrong. Batman-types see the world as a zero sum game, and battles are either won or lost.

Superman,  comes to our world with his gifts and sees his life as an opportunity and an obligation, one that he embraces. Superman could easily kill all the bad guys in a heartbeat, but he never does. For him, every challenge is an opportunity for healing. He believes in redemption and finds pleasure in using his gifts to help others.

Spiderman, a pizza deliver boy from a middle-cast family. He holds power and responsibility to save New-york city. He lived a simple live with friends and family. He live like we do.

Imagine giving a talk to a conference full of Batman types. It's going to be very different than one filled with people who share Superman's privileged and generous worldview, no?  in other hand Spiderman  represent the greater percentage of viewers sitting in front of screen.

There are dozens of other worldview-types out there. Consider the nerd (who prides himself on knowing the details), the jester (who seeks to cause mischief) and the too-busy monkey.

It's virtually impossible to sell a product or an idea or a vote to all of these groups at once. One story just isn't going to do it, which is why there are many kinds of cars, political persuasions and vacation spots. Instead of trying to delight everyone in World-city, it pays to find people who already resonate with the story you want to tell.

So who is Superhero of Superheros, in doing business world wide ??

Ans is SPIDERMAN

When Indian Starts Flying

There was hectic activity to bring planes to India and show them off in 1910. First off the block for His Highness the Maharaja of Patiala. He sent his British Engineer CW Bowles to Europe to look at the new art or science of flyingand bring a couple of planes back with him. Bowles returned to India in December 1910 with a Farman biplane made in England and a Gnome-Bleriot monoplane fitted with two seats. Apparently in Europe, France was the first to get into the business of flying. The Farman was also a French design but built inEngland by a Thomas Holt, recognized as the father of the aviation industry in England, in collaboration with Farman Brothers of France. Fortune did not favor Patiala and neither of these aircraft became the first to get into the air.

“The first actual flight was successfully attained by Mr. Davies in a ‘Bleriot’.

 On the 10th of December  1910. Mr. Davies had the machine ready and early in the morning circled the polo ground at a height of twenty five or thirty feet.

The paper added,

 “ Thus Allahabad has had the distinction of giving the lead not only in India, but also to the whole of Asian Continent in connection with the latest of scientific wonders”.

An Anecdote

An anecdote is a short and amusing or interesting story about a real incident or person. An anecdote is always presented as based in a real incident involving actual persons, whether famous or not, usually in an identifiable place. However, over time, modification in reuse may convert a particular anecdote to a fictional piece, one that is retold but is "too good to be true". Sometimes humorous, anecdotes are not jokes, because their primary purpose is not simply to evoke laughter, but to reveal a truth more general than the brief tale itself, or to delineate a character trait in such a light that it strikes in a flash of insight to its very essence.

The Story Of Beetle

With over 21 million manufactured in an air-cooled, rear-engined, rear-wheel drive configuration, the Beetle is the longest-running and most manufactured car of a single design platform anywhere in the world.

The Story 

Of Beetle

According to the Hitler Historical Museum, possibly biased, Hitler did design it on a piece of paper or a napkin.Sitting at a restaurant table in Munich in the summer of 1932, Hitler designed the prototype for what would become the immensely successful Beetle design for Volkswagen. However according to practically any other source I could find Hitler commissioned the Beetle to Ferdinand Porsche, and gave design specifications (speed, size, cost)  but the actual work was done by Porsche.

    Impressed by Porsche's design capabilities, Hitler delivered him the design brief of a car that could carry two adults and three children at a speed of 60mph with at least 33 mpg. The price was to be 1000 Reichmarks, not much more than a motorcycle at the time.

The Volkswagen was officially named the KdF-Wagen by Hitler when the project was officially announced in 1938.The name refers to Kraft durch Freude 'Strength Through Joy', the official leisure organization of the Third Reich. The model village of Stadt des KdF-Wagens was created near Fallersleben in Lower Saxony in 1938 for the benefit of the workers at the newly built factory. After World War II, it was known as the Volkswagen Type 1, but became more commonly known as the Beetle.
